Hmmm.

You see, now, right - uh-huh… if companys are not being allowed to fail because of their own failures at the moment due to the catastrophic effect they would have on employment, etc - why would they be allowed to fail if taxes set by the government that is saving companys all over the place allow them to fail then?

Also - the only companies that would be put out of business by increases in taxes are already operating paper thin margins - and if it was not a tax bill it would be an unpaid invoice or late orders.
If a company can be put out of business by a late invoice - should it not fail under market conditions?.

Taxes are just another invoice - it’s the invoice that keeps the streets paved so they can move goods, the schools funded so the employees walking in are not dunces, funds the firedepartment if their business caught alight…

Again, dont bother to look past the first layer.
Schools funded, huh, ok.
What would you say to a school administrator, who works 9 months a year (with an extra 30 days paid vacation thrown in for a total of 7 months a year on the job), being paid say $159K a year, and demanding $10, 300 for a small town to “Buy Back” 15 personal days? Think that’s a good deal, or would you call that piggishness on the part of the union/administrator? That’s roughly $686 per day. THAT is where the money goes.
Do you think that is fair?
